hm.. ok, how about on the right side of the button then, where the # of 
windows usually appears when there are several windows grouped?

also as for this:

+    QRectF rect = parentGroup()->tasksLayout()->contentsRect();
+    int rowCount = parentGroup()->tasksLayout()->rowCount();
+    qreal height = rect.height() / rowCount; 
+    QSizeF size(height, height);

it should be able to just position it relative to the task button itself, 
something like this which would make it consistent with the group number 
drawing as well:

Plasma::FrameSvg *itemBackground = m_applet->itemBackground();
QSizeF busySize(itemBackground->elementSize(expanderElement()));
QRectF animationRect(QPointF(size().width() - busySize.width(), (size.height() 
- busySize.height())  / 2), busySize);

even with this code, however, if the size of the button changes while the app 
is launching the busy widget will no longer be in the right place.

so ... either the positioning code should be put into a separate method and be 
called from both startStartupAnimation and resizeEvent or a layout should be 
used to manage that for us. a layout is probably overkill in this situation, 
though.
